How will the internet react if Zelda U comes to the NX at launch?

It's not like x86 is some magical technology provided Nintendo is even interested in using it. 

Zelda U (launch day), Smash Brothers (1-2 weeks post launch) right off the bat for example would start the system off very strongly and gives them time to get a proper 3D Mario from EAD Tokyo not soon after launch, etc. etc. 

Hell it wouldn't stun me if Pokemon Sun/Moon are also on the NX as well as 3DS (kinda weird Nintendo showed zero footage of the game in the unveil) if its a unified platform. 

Without X86 they can kiss any third party support goodbye. At wich point, what difference is there to the Wii U?

What are you assuming the NX is? Portable, home console or both? Game freak has never developed an HD game. I don't see them starting now with a mainline title coming out this fall on 3DS.

NX is probably their entire hardware future period, and NX will have shared games. So home and portable variants (possibly more than 2). 

I get the feeling the portable NX is going to be something different from what we expect too, seems like Nintendo plans on keeping the 3DS around for a while as a cheap/budget/pocket friendly portable, I could see in that case the portable NX being a different (larger) form factor. That would allow for a bigger battery and better chipset. 

So maybe home console + portable console in 2016, in 2017 or 2018 you have NX Pocket (more along the lines of a 3DS XL sized device) maybe when they can die shrink to 10nm or something. That would make sense. 

Those are just my guesses though, but it seems like Nintendo is not planning on the 3DS going anywhere for another year at least.
